The striking contrast of a black tourmaline cluster perched on a bed of milky white feldspar from Pakistan is a breathtaking natural spectacle. The deep, inky black tourmaline crystals, with their sleek and lustrous surfaces, create a dramatic visual juxtaposition against the soft, creamy hues of the feldspar matrix. This unique combination not only highlights the individual beauty of each mineral but also enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of the specimen. The tourmaline's sharp, angular formations are a stark contrast to the smooth and often gently curved surfaces of the feldspar, creating a dynamic interplay of textures and colors. Originating from the renowned mineral-rich regions of Pakistan, this specimen showcases the exceptional geological diversity and the intricate natural processes that form such captivating mineral pairings.

Microcline Minerals become once referred to as light-yellow, reddish-brown, or black isometric minerals composed of sodium calcium tantalum oxide with a small quantity of fluorine. Its chemical formula is (Na, Ca)2Ta2O6(O, OH, F). Nowadays it’s far a call for a collection of oxide minerals of a similar stylometric having tantalum prevailing over titanium and niobium.
 The microcline organization belongs to a large pyrochlore super group that takes place in pegmatite's and constitutes an ore of tantalum. Microlite was first defined in 1835 for an occurrence at the Island of Uto, state of Stockholm, Sweden. Some other prevalence of microlite is the Clark Ledges phlegmatic, Chesterfield, Hampshire County, Massachusetts. The name is from Greek micros for small and lit-hos for stone.
